Abstract

Behaviours and internal constructions regarding the meaning and purpose of sleep are established very early in the infant’s life and continue through adolescence to adulthood. A sensitive and attuned caregiver will initiate interaction and be responsive to the infant’s needs. It is within this relationship that the child learns to regulate his or her own feelings and behaviours (Sadeh, 2001).
